September is on the doorstep. My girls are starting school in a week. The school supplies are purchased and awaiting to be used. All is ready for another year of yellow buses, backpacks, holes in the jeans and homework. So... before I left on my little vacation I wanted to share these printables with you.

These would look good on folders, books and duo-tangs. Feel free to use these for your little students:)

To copy: click on the image - it will open up in its own window at a high resolution (300dpi-true size). Copy that to your desktop and feel free to use:) You could make them smaller if you'd like.

Wanted to show you this little vintage(1920s)ceramic necklace I found on etsy a little while ago. Or, maybe it found me. A little family (just like mine - minus the dog and the hilarious black moustache)... I wear it whenever I can. Better than silver and gold it is...

Good to be back:) I've been away in the land of 'working without breaks' and the blog (and many other things) has been simmering on the back burner. Trying to finish all the projects before the 31st - which is the day I leave to San Francisco for a tiny 4 day vacation! Super exited about that... dizzy with anticipation! If you know of some exiting places in SF I can visit - please share!:)

What do you think of the new pattern? I've been thinking of Upper Canada Village while making it. Mike (my other creative half) has been invited to present (his guitars and his process) there in October. I might come with him... a taste of the simpler life.

Despite the heat and humidity, kids are spending almost all of their time outside with the little neighbourhood gang of 4-8 y. olds:) By now they earned a nice tan (I look like a queen of snowflakes beside them) and a dozen scrapes and bruises. They've grown so much in the last two months. Wishing the summer never ended.
